Today's Friday! And you know what that means? Well, according to the British 80's rock band The Cure, it means I'm in love! While writing this song, Robert Smith became convinced that he had unknowingly stolen the chord progression from somewhere, so he called all of his buds and played the tune. None of them had heard it before, and he realized that the progression was actually his creation. When it was commercially released, it sounded a quarter tone higher than the D major scale they played it in due to Robert forgetting to turn off the vari-speed on the tape before recording. The single hit number 6 in the UK, and 18 on the Billboard Hot 100. This song was actually produced in 1992, but it's still a great song of the 80's era.
